Stop 1 · 40m
While there are so many living stories that took place in the Township, Soweto mostly gained World's fame through Students' uprising on this day of 16th June 1976. This was a demonstration for educational rights.
After the introduction of Bantu (to the black students) educational system in 1954 the department were not convinced to be more than enough. In 1974 they commanded the use of Afrikaans language as a medium of instruction only to the black students. This was truly a poisonous education aimed at destroying the future of the blacks.
16th June is well represented in this Museum. Join us on this tour for more insight about the Soweto students and this day. -
